1. okay, eventually I will "Settle for Hillary"

but I am in no hurry

[840high]

2. I'm not "settling" this year. Done

settling for too many years.

[JaneyVee]

11. What does that even mean?

[840high]

12. Stupid question. You darn

well know what that means.

3. These are all things I can get on board with.

Except waiting for mathematical elimination -- I can't wrap my head around why people would do that. But it's not a deal breaker. Accepting what is to be and putting your focus on the general is exactly what I'd like to happen.

4. I live in a late voting state and mostly just want to vote for my favorite candidate.

6. You are NOT about Unity...only Hillary

You think we are all idiots?

[Fumesucker]

5. After this primary is over what Sanders supporter is going to believe a word out of Clinton's mouth?

Hillary reminds me of this cartoon from 2012...

[angstlessk]

7. Not I n/t

[RobertEarl]

8. War?

What war? If she makes it in she'll start WW3.

That war. Ya think she'll get up there on stage and talk about how real fucking important real world peace is?

I don't, so .............

9. For a great many, and I am not talking about just here at DU, that ship has sailed.

The new voters - they will not be ordered and cajoled and lied into getting into a line they were never in, in the first place.

Here is my problem - There is no way I can see to believe a word Hillary says. And what she has always proudly stood for, I cannot stomach - war, fracking, cluster bombs, stuffing people into private (or public) prisons, etc. Those things cannot be explained away, and she is still for all of those things. So I will just be skipping the depressingly inevitable unity threads. Unity requires so much denial of things I consider important to actual people that I cannot countenance it.

10. I predict she will take a hard right...

...on several issues once the primary is over, particularly on foreign policy. But as long as she is not worse than trump, right?

[840high]

13. That no longer works

for me. No Clintons.
